Abstract (en)

The electric motor drive device (100) includes a smoothing capacitor (4) and an inverter (1), and further includes an overvoltage protection unit (6) for overvoltage protection for the smoothing capacitor (4), and a phase short-circuit control unit (12). The overvoltage protection unit (6) includes: a discharge circuit (20) having a discharge resistor (7) and an IGBT (9) connected in series; and a first determination circuit (21) which determines, with determination delay, that smoothing capacitor voltage exceeds first set voltage, and turns on the IGBT (9). The phase short-circuit control unit (12) is provided in a control device (5) for drive-controlling the inverter (1) and includes a second determination circuit (13) which determines, with a determination period longer than the determination delay of the first determination circuit (21), that smoothing capacitor voltage exceeds second set voltage lower than the first set voltage, to perform phase short-circuit control for the inverter (1).
